@LoneWonderer Yeah, it's a bit surprising and disappointing to see. Hopefully this phase goes over quickly.

1. Are any of you creators, or consumers, of Visual Novels? What are your experiences?

Yes, while it's cringe at first to do, with all these false accusations and shit we might have to do something like this lol!

@BipolarGrowth Over working one muscle group too much, without working the other antagonistic muscles is dangerous and can damage a person's posture long term, especially over working the push muscles of the upper body. The main issue is not if there's a lack of mental toughness, although that can be factored later, the main issue is posture being bad, which can later damage joints of that part of the body.

@Fredodoow I'll answer a bit briefly and give an intuitive take of this, with three semi constructed thought examples. I think the main problem with this framing is people misusing the statement of art is subjective to justify their bad art as good art and to nullify all types of critics to it. Another problem is thinking that art is only subjective and there's no objectivity to it. Also, art is not valuable because it lacks any objective standards is a problem too. These three problems are in large due to a person not being able to recognize the many different levels of art existentially speaking, and not catch on the many ways art can be purposed for what and for whom. Also, what makes art considered objective and subjective, is the context in terms of history and catalogued information surrounding that art piece so far for the objectivity of the art piece, along with a person's worldview, psychological development, cognitive and moral development, personality type, mind and body type, states of consciousness and life experiences and other lines of development. For example, look at the three examples below of three scenarios: 1. I have made an abstract painting of a building, that I made. I'm just an abstract painter, with little experience with designing buildings, with some extroversion and whimsicality to my personality. On a whim, with my small team that I care less for in favor for my own art, I blueprint it and construct it into the real world for 100 people to view and go in. However, the building collapses, killing 20, injuring 50, the other 30 are lucky. As I have nearly zero experience being an architect, designing architecture, adhering little to art fundamentals and instead wanted to be radically different, believing my design works because I say so. What? art is subjective, you can't critic my artwork, it's the fault of the other team members, they designed the building in the wrong way. 2. I have predominantly stage orange, with some stage green and yellow values and skills, I am cognitively more aware of myself and other's views and am morally able to understand and empathize with those members more. Due to my introverted personality with some extroversion, more intuitive than logical and visually dominant mind, I made a realistic drawing and painting of a building in my mind first in 3d, before drawing and painting it as an experienced drawer and painter. My state of consciousness is such that I am aware of almost all my design limitations, and the limitations of feedback from my team members, so I adjust to current situations as needed and any feedback for later I file away. As an Architect, with my small team, I design this building into the real world for 100 people to enjoy, and none were hurt by my design, as I have studied other building designs of other artists and engineers and adhered to principles and theory that has worked for many decades for the times in my life that worked. I honor and am aware of art existing as a spectrum between functional art and creative art, and both extremes are in a balancing path. 3. I am an engineer and architect experienced in life. I am far more rationally minded, logical, and values that are even more in stage orange. I am cognitively divergent as I'm autistic and focus on the numbers, visually dominant, introverted personality. I don't get along with most, and my moral compass mostly circles around me and my family and the few friends I have, and not to the rest of the team. As long as the building is functional, I don't care for the aesthetics. Who the hell needs aesthetics? 100 people came to view the building, inside and out. Nobody died, but their feedback was that the building is too simple and bland. I don't care, at least the jobs and functionality are such that nobody died and am not to blame. Try to see, compare and contrast the 3 scenarios, and how the three points of view, view art as. One sees art as purely subjective and uses that to justify bad art decisions and obfuscate responsibility for the harm and deaths of the people in the building. The 2nd perspective recognizes the validity and soundness of art being both functional and aesthetics and makes sure that the people are not only safe but are also mesmerized by the design as well. The 3rd point of view is too rational and too into being logical and engineering to even consider the aesthetics of the building's design. While this view has achieved the safety of all the viewers, this point does not consider the feedback of aesthetics valid, as it cares far more for functionality than pleasing design and leans too heavily to the art objectivity, potentially killing off the creative aspects and possibilities. The aim is to work towards the 2nd person's views more, to realize that art can be both functional and aesthetically pleasing, and to be construct aware and context sensitive to use whichever spectrum more or less, to actively balance. I will definitely come back after reading this some more and contemplating. Does my post make sense on some level?

The stage green monster shadow here is unreal! WTF?! You can say some shit about the royal family, but to say that right after the death of a Queen? Just like that, instant loss of humanity and decency? WOW.

True.

@Someone here Why so many questions? Are you thirsty for a quest of knowledge, or to quench one's need for leggings, horny conquest? Hard to comprehend, that every bend and ends you go, every moral, is relative to every mortal? Morbid, I know, to consider, that morals are relative than absolute. The morals of a creature alien stage beige, to tribes like the Viking stage purple/red, Native Americans stage purple to red, businesses like hip hop industry and oil to tabaco industries staged orange and some blue, hippie communes, SJWs, leftie leaners, a pinch of orange to a dollop of stage green, guaranteed to make you leap to the greener side of the fence. Meanwhile, Star Trek's stage yellow space systems quite complex, until we discover an alien intelligent hive mind hybrid artificial intelligence, stage turquoise and beyond maybe. I know, so many colors, it's insane this rainbow array of morals like the coral reefs of old, so much so, that these moray eels rather prefer their muralled enclaves as the best for the whole coral reef system, to the death, good grief, ignoring the glaring hole of their whole mental prism they call home. Rather champion their standards, blind bastards, with their double standards and banters making even lib-tards pleasant like strawberry tarts! Technically, historically absolutist morality originally started in every birth and growth of empires/civilizations, to bind their peoples together some more, to bid farewell to older systems that don't work anymore to forward survival agendas way better than before, while keeping the pleasing aspects of those past systems be. So, what would it take, to make these moral nihilists wake up from their denial? Drag a fishing net, by a mile, for a while? Or maybe do a bit of sea mining? How would we develop from my/our morals to higher more inclusive morals? How many mourns of other morals do we need to suffer more? Until we survive the transformation of the globe, as our one true home? Or are we really alone? I don't know, so, we gotta shoulder on forward, warding off evil as we go.

@JTL Amazing, either it's a real image or a deep fake image.

@ArcticGong Fantastic example of someone who felt empowered to talk shit when an important person dies. Again, choose: to attack the royal family, or the Queen? Either one I recommend you make a thread and go crazy with it.

@Silodium That's nice!

@Someone here Yes, you can, although that means you have to be good with the contradictions you encounter in yourself. However, as soon as other people are around you, in practice it's going to be difficult, and you might wish that there are enforced ethics and morals for how those people behave around you.

@Sugarcoat I completely agree, I was lucky to have discovered athleanx and elliot hulse, and did some of their mobility and stretching routines beofre and after lifting heavy weights. I can thrust up 250 pounds above my head, and still be flexible enough to put both my hands and elbows behind my ears. I also suggest way more static training than dynamic training, as it's more common to damage your joints or ligaments or pull a muscle when doing dynamic training.

This statement is true, and this statement is false.

It's an exception to the rule though, despite how inspiring that is.

???

While the professor could have had a point, the way it was presented was very untactful, and makes stage green look unhinged. Is this the new standard for society? I hope not, as this gives all the excuses to shut down stage green even further.

@Vrubel That's true to some extent. You can't have a dry state at all. Nobody in the commons is built for a solitary boring life, there needs to be some distractions or else society wouldn't function as smoothly. You need sentimentality or almost all of that society would be harming itself.

Feel free to share yours, and your thoughts on why. I think this one by Destiny is great, as it shows so many rhetorical tricks and mental stamina to keep on debating like this:

I don't like Jeff Bazos, but this is an article of him tweeting, and getting roasted apparently: https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwjl4cTN34j6AhX6SkEAHc93BfAQFnoECAcQAQ&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.independent.co.uk%2Fnews%2Fworld%2Famericas%2Fjeff-bezos-under-fire-after-tweet-about-queen-s-b2163071.html&usg=AOvVaw1wKeNBGUZ_ILoPk2WuLejk As if that's gonna do anything to a multi billionaire man?

@D2sage That's the sacrifice you got to pay, for trying to lead a very successful millionaire like life, working away in some room, allocating most of your time and energy into projects. For example, I am not at celebrity level fame, I am reasonably famous, but the process of writing my stories, creating my backgrounds and sprites, finding the right music, and especially coding my Visual Novels, while doing my comic books, and on top of that doing my business and marketing stuff for my projects, takes so much time and energy, that it's no different from a 9-6 work in reality, really. It's just you slightly like this work versus the other, even though this work is more restrictive for the sake of higher quality content. I guess I'm very lucky, to have had a small circle of friends in the past, but now very few to sometimes no contact, which gets me much more time and energy to do what I want to do. Success is the hell you go through, to make the heavenly content.

@Guru Peter Jordanson That's not the topic actually, the topic, from the title, is 'Queen Elizabeth II has passed away'. You are projecting things that aren't really there, in the OP'S post, at all.

@Fleetinglife Alright, I see.
